Welcome to Warner Bros. Discovery… the stuff dreams are made of.

From brilliant creatives, to technology trailblazers, across the globe, WBD offers career defining opportunities, thoughtfully curated benefits, and the tools to explore and grow into your best selves. Here you are supported, here you are celebrated, here you can thrive.

Max is where storytelling takes center stage and where creatives find a home with the support and resources to do their best work, no matter the genre or format. Whatever the viewer wants to watch is front and center and more of what they crave is easily discovered. It is where our exclusive Max Originals and iconic entertainment brands thrive, with HBO, HBO Max, Warner Bros., DC, Turner Classic Movies, Cartoon Network and more delivering the greatest array of series, movies, and specials for audiences of all ages. HBO Max originally launched in the United States in May 2020 and introduced a lower priced, advertising-supported tier in June 2021. It rolled out globally across Latin America and the Caribbean in 2021, followed by its first European launches in the Nordics and Spain later that year. In May 2023, Warner Bros.

As content creators across the digital ecosystem, we leverage our technology to create immersive viewing and interactive experiences. We tell engaging stories to millions of viewers, and we are looking for a Product Manager to join the Subscription, Membership & Customer Lifecycle team within the Growth Product organization.

Your New Role: 

In 2025, the Subscription, Membership and Customer Lifecycle (SMCL) team is focused on the international expansion of Max, developing new and innovative monetization capabilities for Max and Discovery+, and constant optimization of our purchase flows to drive subscriber growth. 

As a Product Manager on the SMCL team working in the Commerce space, you’ll drive the strategy and execution of critical growth initiatives. You’ll be tirelessly thinking about how to grow our customer base and revenue in impactful ways.  

Day-to-day, you’ll succeed by learning what’s worth doing that is simultaneously usable, valuable, and feasible, through utilizing product discovery and design thinking. You’ll connect regularly with customers to become an expert on our audience and industry. You’ll lead and motivate a dedicated, cross-functional Agile team by communicating vision, authoring robust product requirements, and coordinating regularly and clearly with partners and stakeholders. You are adept at navigating complex customer and business problems and in doing so, can define achievable MVP requirements and future iterations to make meaningful business impact. 

You have executive presence, and you’re comfortable sharing your work with senior leadership in a clear, simple, and straightforward manner. 

As the ideal candidate, you’re a driven, passionate advocate for your customers and your business, with a sense of urgency to make things better wherever you are. You’re always handy with a strong point of view, but you’re open-minded and can admit when you’re wrong. Your teams love working with you because you lead through inspiration and motivation rather than rules and hierarchies.  

If this sounds like you, and you’re excited to work with great people, we’d love to meet up!  

 

Your Role Accountabilities: 

  • Develop deep understanding of the customer, data, business, and industry, specifically in the Commerce space.

  • Ensure good communication and transparency by partnering with internal teams including editorial, marketing, advertising, business development, distribution, customer support, etc. 

  • Gather critical legal requirements for your product area to develop compliant yet delightful customer experiences. 

  • Coordinate with product peers and their teams to share learnings and ensure quality cross-platform experience. 

  • Discover opportunities worth pursuing through rapid experimentation via product discovery, A/B testing, and design thinking methods. 

  • Identify and map customer goals, values and needs more than “wants” or “table stakes”. 

  • Inform decisions with qualitative and quantitative data.  

  • Identify opportunities for research and partner with UX Research team to define learning objectives and research plans. 

 

Qualifications & Experience: 

  • 3-5+ years’ experience as a Product Manager within a technology or digital organization. 

  • Deep technical experience in the Commerce space, both with backend APIs / architecture and frontend client user flows and experiences. 

  • Streaming/TVE/Connected TV/mobile industry and domain experience. 

  • Experience leading high profile, multi-faceted products and communicating initiatives across the organization (including senior leadership and stakeholders). 

  • Experience delivering all phases of a project, including planning, design, development, and implementation. 

  • Excellent problem solving, critical thinking, and analytical skills.
